Generally you will get page breaks when you start on a new file section of the epub. It is about impossible to make them not break when you change files across all devices.

If you are using calibre for conversion, it automatically makes new files every 260k or so to avoid old readers like ours from barfing on too big files.

If you are trying to make the next novel consisting of one paragraph 300 pages long, you will not succeed consistently with epubs as they all handle it differently the newer devices being less sensitive. BUT giant files can slow any device down when it tries to format one giant file when it starts or if you change text size.

My experience is with my Sony, so Kindle people may chime in and tell you how it affects them...and there are a LOT of them. But if this is for you personally, then format it however you like.
